INDEPENDENCE DAY IN NIGERIA


 *OUR LADY QUEEN AND PATRONESS OF NIGERIA (SOLEMNITY)*

Psalm 72:1-2, 7-8, 12-13, 17 (R. 7)

TOPIC FOR REFLECTION


 *THE LORD SHALL SAVE NIGERIA 🇳🇬* 


Today, as Nigerians, we have double celebrations. 

1. The National Independence of our country Nigeria 🇳🇬.

2. The consecration of our country Nigeria to Mary as Our Lady Queen and Patroness of Nigeria.


The first reading of today talks about liberation. 

I pray that the good Lord will liberate Nigerians from the hands of our WICKED LEADERS AND FOLLOWERS IN JESUS NAME.


The second reading talks about peace. I pray that the good Lord shall restore PEACE INTO OUR COUNTRY NIGERIA IN JESUS NAME.


The Gospel reminds us of how God instructed Joseph in the dream to save both Mary and the baby Jesus from being killed by Herod.

I pray 🙏 this day that God will give us a leader whom He will use to save us from the unreasonable incessant killings by the...

***Boko Haram

***Bandits

***Fulani Herdsmen

***Terrorists

***Kidnappers/Abductors. etc

In JESUS NAME.


Therefore, the consecration of our dear country to Mary, Queen and Patroness, means that all of us must come to her and learn from her school. The school of Mary teaches us how to submit as a nation to God’s will, his plan and purposes for our country. By Mary, we are inspired to say always, “Be it done to me according to thy word.” Like Mary, we submit our wills to obey the laws and precepts of God. We submit our minds to assent with perfect submission and firm belief in revealed truth and the doctrine of Christ. We also submit our hearts to spurn natural desires, love God above all things and cleave to God always. Mary, as our intercessor, will plead with us through her Son to bring about total healing of our country in the face of corruption, bad governance/ government policies and lawlessness in our country. Through Mary our Mother, we conquer.

(culled from OBTech Missal for October 1st, 2023)


Remember, it is just one day that the who delivered Zion from the hands of their enemies (bondage), will deliver Nigeria like a dream from the hand of... 

1. Emi lokan regime.

2. Corrupt politicians

3. Corrupt judges

4. Corrupt followers


However, be rest assured that the Lord shall deliver Nigeria from the hands of the TUNUBUISTIC EMI LOKAN CABALS who thought they had already pocketed the Nigerians and her treasuries, it will be like a dream.

Then the mouth of the faithful Nigerians shall be filled with laughter.


Finally, Kindly be reminded that October devotion commences today in all Parishes. Do well to participate actively.


More so, make sure you pray your Rosary every day, and let it become part of your daily spiritual exercises. 


 *HAPPY INDEPENDENT NIGERIANS  🇳🇬* 


 *Peace ✌️ be with you.*

DO YOU KNOW WHY AND HOW JESUS OVERCAME HIS TEMPTATION?

 Sunday, February 26, 2023. FIRST SUNDAY OF LENT (A) First Reading. Genesis 2: 7-9; 3: 1-7 Psalm. 51: 3-6, 12-14, and 17 (R. cf. 3a) Second Reading. Romans 5: 12- 19 Gospel. Matthew 4: 1-11 TOPIC FOR REFLECTION  YOUR DESIRE IS YOUR TEMPTATION.  Do you know why JESUS did not fall into temptation? It is because...  1. He is divine and not of the flesh; remember, only flesh is tempted and not the Spirit.  2. He came from Heaven, and not from the earth.  3. He is in the world, but not of the world.  4. All that exists on earth was created THROUGH HIM, AND WITH HIM, AND IN HIM. So, how can what he creates tempt Him the creator? 5. He came to save and to teach us how to be saved, by extension, how to overcome temptation.  I will like to quickly remind us that all temptations in life fall under 3 categories. They are...  1. PLEASURE  2. POWER  3. POSSESSION.  Jesus was tempted by these 3 categories.  They are as follows:  1. The temptation of pleasure: Turn these stones into bread. Jesus did

IF JESUS WAS BAD, CAN YOU FOLLOW HIM?

 *Sunday, October 22, 2023*  29TH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME YEAR A  *MISSION SUNDAY*  First Reading. Isaiah 45: 1, 4-6 PSALM 96: 1, 3-5, 7-10 (R. 7b) Second Reading 1 Thessalonians 1:1-5 Gospel. Matthew 22: 15-21 TOPIC FOR REFLECTION  *IF JESUS WAS NOT RESPONSIBLE, WILL YOU FOLLOW HIM?*  Today is mission Sunday, and for anyone to live a fulfilled missionary life, such ought to be a responsible person. No one can survive on a mission land if he lacks good character. I hope you know that Jesus' good character attracted us to follow Him in His mission. So will anyone with good character on a mission influence or attract people to God? Good character attracts, while bad character repels. Jesus is a good man because his ways of life are good. Christianity is a good religion because it is Jesus' way of life. Therefore, Christianity is a way of life. So, since Christianity is a way of life, it teaches how to live a good responsible life filled with a high sense of responsibility.  A Chr

DO NOT BE A HYPOCRITICAL PERSON

 *Friday, October 20, 2023*  Weekday (28) Ordinary Time A First Reading. Romans 4: 1-8 Psalm 32: 1-2, 5, 11 (R. see 7). Gospel. Luke 12: 1-7 TOPIC FOR REFLECTION  *TRUST GOD, BUT AVOID HYPOCRISY*  Jesus said, "Be on your guard against the yeast of the Pharisees – that is, their hypocrisy".  It simply means if you know anybody with the under-listed attributes, please in your interest and for the sake of your future, avoid them. If you can't avoid them, learn to manage them. Do not keep such persons as friends, unless you want to ruin your future. So, avoid: 1. The people who are not real, fake by nature. 2. Those who teach the wrong doctrine 3. Those who blackmail and slander people. Note: Be aware that those who gossip to you about others have already massacred you to other people before coming to you. Avoid them. 4. Those who are pretenders  5. Those who are full of eye 👀  service 6. Those who live and dine with envy and jealousy. etc. Jesus went further to say, that ev
